Who I am:

  • Hi, my name is Jim Bolssens. I'm a Belgian vet with special interest in companion animals. I've been living in Sharjah since March 2004 with my wife Liesbeth. I'm proud to say that since July 2005 we have a lovely daughter, Hannelore, and since August 2008 a second girl named Alexia. Both were born here in Dubai. My father is also a vet and since I was a kid I've always had a special interest in helping and curing animals in need. Although tender love and care is half of the work when it comes to sick pets, as a veterinarian I now am qualified to help them even better with a broad medical background.

How I got here:

  • After I graduated from Ghent University (Belgium),  I worked with my father, who is also a veterinarian, in his small animal clinic in Antwerp where I gained valuable and excellent experience in treating different domestic pets. Liesbeth,  my wife, who is also a veterinarian specializing in horses, was offered a position as a surgeon in Sharjah... we decided to take the challenge and start a new life in the sunny Emirates. Initially I worked in "The Veterinary Hospital" in Dubai where I stayed for almost one year. Then I saw there was a real need for a veterinary clinic in Sharjah and so in May 2005 Europets Hospital opened for business.

Equivet:

  • September 2009 my lovely wife Liesbeth decided to join the Europets Hospital and set up a branch for horses. She is fully equipped to do all medical treatments on the road, including dental, internal medicine, surgery and breeding. She has access to full bloods laboratory, X-ray and ultrasound and will be more then happy to help you. For more info call 050/8606856.

Helping me:

  • In May 2006 Kamela joined the hospital helping me keeping everything clean, assisting with the consults and giving a lot of love to your pets if they need to stay at the hospital. She is from Sri Lankan origin and has good experience with cats and dogs.


     
  • In May 2009 Kim joined our reception staff. She will be answering your phone calls and keeping records of your pets health. She has owned cats and dogs throughout her live and is trained in HR.

 

  • In November 2009 Chantell joined our reception staff allowing us to keep reception open longer during lunch and evenings. Since she joined we also started opening on Saturday mornings. She is a real animal lover and with her 19 cats and dogs has plenty of experience!

 

  • Anoma joined in April 2010. She is from Sri Lanka and will be helping Kamala keeping everything spot on clean.
